Chapter 85: Temptation
When the eldest princess of Jiajing rushed to the outside of the water pavilion, she saw such a scene:
A young lady with a delicate face was holding a bamboo pole with a bean-sized shortbread hanging from the other end of the bamboo pole, and Shizi was standing beside her with a net bag in his hand.
I saw that the young lady gently threw out the bamboo pole, and saw that the fragrant corn shortbread was about to fall to the water, and the fish came out of the water and pouted and jumped towards the shortbread as much as possible......
It turned out that the bottom of the net bag had been cut by them with scissors, and from a distance, it was a field of purple and red, colorful koi fish struggling to jump into the net bag one after another...... What a wonder! What a wonderful person!
Looking carefully at his son's face, I haven't seen him smile so happily for a long time! After the death of his father, this sensitive child became sentimental, suspicious and violent, and gradually set up a heart, and never grew up again...... Now that he is like this, at least he is happy, at least he has forgotten about those terrible pasts for a while......
Feeling that someone was looking at him, Shen Moyun couldn't help but look back, and saw that the person who came to lead the way was a round-faced noblewoman, about thirty years old, with a delicate and fair face, powerful eyes, not angry and arrogant, and a cold and noble aura exuding from her body, who else could this be the eldest princess?
Shen Moyun hurriedly put down the bamboo pole in his hand and hurriedly saluted.
The eldest princess turned her attention to Shen Moyun, although this young lady was dressed in a low-key and simple manner, her gestures were full of a sense of luxury; although her face was not gorgeous or unassuming, she had her own attractive bearing, slender body, delicate eyebrows and eyes, although she had not yet grown at this time, with the eldest princess's countless experience in reading people, this child was definitely a beauty billet who grew longer and more standard. Especially those eyes, when smiling, make people feel like a spring breeze, the ice and snow are melting, and when you look at them, those eyes are dark and bright. so that people do not realize that they are deeply immersed in it......
This appearance is a pleasing one!
"You are Shen Moyun, the eldest lady of the Shen family?"
"Back to Madame, the folk girl is exactly!" When he came to Changningbo's Mansion, Shen Moyun noticed that the maids all called the eldest princess Madame. There was not a single mention of the word princess. Come to think of it, this should be the rules of Changningbo's Mansion, and it is also the eldest princess's remembrance of her deceased husband, right?
"Mother, you're here!" Although Liu Yunle is a child, he knows the number of etiquette. He immediately threw down his net and saluted, ran to his mother, and took her arm affectionately. "Mother, where did you find this sister...... Oh, no, it's my sister! This sister is very interesting! She knows everything! It's so much better than having fun!"
"Well, it's good that Le'er is happy! Mother asks this sister to say a few words, Le'er is good! Let's play with Qing'er and them for a while!"
Liu Yunle was obedient, pouting and continuing to fish nets, while Shen Moyun followed the eldest princess to the second floor of the water pavilion.
If the first floor of the pavilion is a fresh and elegant natural style, then the second floor is obviously a luxurious style for guests to talk freely.
The eyes are full of top-level furniture that is not inferior to the luxurious private room of Taibai Lou that day, luxurious and generous. Extravagant. The sweet and pure heart cake has already been burned, and the house is full of fragrance and refreshing.
The eldest princess sat down elegantly on the main seat, and held up the bucket ink pastel tea bowl and motioned for Shen Moyun to drink tea.
"This is the best Shangrao white eyebrows, tribute, Miss Shen likes to taste it?"
Since it was a tribute, how could Shen Moyun dare not like it? She still dared to ignore the taste of the emperor and the princess?
She gently opened the tea bowl, and a fresh smell of tea came out of her nose. The tea soup is bright, the bottom of the leaves is tender and green, and it is a good tea at first glance! It seems to be a little worse.
She took a sip gently, although this tea was fragrant on her teeth and cheeks, and the bottom of her tongue was full of relish, but the tea tasted extremely bitter. After a few breaths, it was only after that. Shen Moyun was suspicious in her heart, although she had never drunk Baimei, she had seen a lot of tea scriptures, this tea type, this bitter taste. It's clearly not what white eyebrows should be.
What does the eldest princess mean by this? First tell her that this is a white eyebrow, but obviously change her to other tea?
What did she need to do? Should she accept the princess's praise for the deliciousness of the "white eyebrows", or should she be truthful and point out that the tea soup was not right? Did the eldest princess deliberately test her? Or was it just the maid who was mistaken?
In case, she was reckless and provoked the eldest princess to fight against her? Could it be that the eldest princess wanted to solve the trap she had set?
Shen Moyun's heart couldn't help but turn a thousand times, but he didn't dare to raise his head, so he could only think about it secretly.
"What does Miss Shen think of this tea?"
The eldest princess was looking at Shen Moyun with interest, watching her take small sips of tea, waiting for her reply.
Shen Moyun gritted his teeth, and could only choose the safest statement:
"The tea given by the eldest princess is still a tribute, which is naturally excellent! It's just that the folk girl has been staying in the countryside farm all these years, and she is used to coarse tea and light food, and she has never drunk good tea such as white eyebrows, so she really doesn't know how to distinguish between good and bad. However, looking at the tea, the tea soup is gentle, the leaves are fresh, and the aftertaste is bitter and sweet, so it must be the best tea!"
The eldest princess took a deep look at this woman with clear eyebrows, and she was really cautious.
The first statement made it clear that this tea was given by His Holiness, and she was just a recipient; then she explained that she was lonely and unheard, and that she didn't understand what kind of tea you had, whether it was good or not, anyway, she didn't understand; and finally explained the taste of the tea she tasted, no matter what your purpose was, anyway, she was telling the truth and did not deceive. I also praised this tea again!
The eldest princess couldn't help but have a good impression of this silent cloud, this woman is delicate, if she can use it for herself, it is indeed a big gain.
"Hehe! Miss Shen likes it, Zhu'er, Miss Shen's tea is cold, go change a bowl!"
"Yes!"
Na Zhu'er was quick to move her hands and feet, and immediately brought a bowl of new tea, and sniffed lightly on the tip of her nose, knowing that this tea was no longer the tea just now. She couldn't help but feel relieved, it seemed that this first level had passed.
"The first time Miss Shen came to my Yongning Hou Mansion, she was able to get along well with my family, and she could also be commensurate with brother and sister, which is really excellent!"
"Madame, don't make fun of the people's daughter! It's the prince who cares about it, and it's just a slip of the tongue! Shen Moyun knows that his status is low, and he doesn't dare to have the heart to cling, how can he be a "sister" of the prince, and please don't blame Madame!" she obediently got up and made a big salute. Fortunately, the "sister" of the prince was corrected by her in time at the beginning, otherwise, her guilt would have been great!
Since Miss Shen doesn't like to be called "brother and sister" with my family, why don't you call Miss Shen 'Yun'er' in the future?
Shen Moyun began to complain again in her heart, she didn't feel good enough about herself to feel that her relationship with the princess of the dynasty had become so close?
