007 The treacherous plan failed
Since the prince left, Yu Xinxun has renovated the mansion up and down. After the pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info gave Zhang Long and Heyanju's subordinates some money, they were all sent out of the house. Inside and out, they were replaced with new slaves.
This matter is considered to be in the past, but the sudden change in Yu Manman's temperament and Li Bao's death still left a shadow in Yu Xinxun's heart and became a lingering pimple.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's intentional or unintentional help to her made her have to treat this concubine differently who had never been taken seriously.
The weather is getting hotter, and even if you sit inside, you can feel the sun outside.
In the courtyard of Le'an
The pale green water gauze curtains, the scattered green cloud gauze pearl string curtains, and several landscape paintings hanging on the walls are all from the hands of contemporary masters. On the bronze mirror dresser of the plough wood, there is a small four-cornered copper beast furnace, and at this time a puff of green smoke is emitting, exuding the fragrance of magnolia.
A wooden table, a cup of tea, and a piece of rice paper. At this time, Yu Manman was standing in front of the window with a pen.
Dressed in a plain bandeau top, a purple narrow-sleeved gauze skirt, and only a simple bow tied around the waist, the slender figure is outlined at a glance. His waist-length hair was tied high behind his head and he was not wearing any headdress. The cold and beautiful face is not powdered, and the red lips are lightly pursed, looking simple and beautiful.
In the past few days, Yu Xinxun's attitude towards himself has improved significantly, and he no longer ignores him as before. I bought a lot of clothes and jewelry for myself, and asked someone to renovate the Le'an Temple, and replaced the steamed bread and green vegetable porridge with a normal four dishes and one soup.
Yu Xinxun also asked the housekeeper to bring a message, saying that he could walk around the house at will in the future, and if he needed anything, he would go to the front yard to find him.
Yu Manman saw all this in his eyes and was unmoved. Neither rejected nor accepted Yu Xinxun's performance.
It was Wang Ma and Starlight, Chenguang was surprised by this, thinking that he was still dreaming. People who have ignored Miss for more than ten years suddenly began to care about Miss's food, clothing, housing and transportation, which is really surprising.
In this regard, Wang Ma and Starlight attributed it to Yu Xinxun's conscience, which made Yu Manman laugh.
The two of them only knew that Li Huwei died suddenly due to a hidden illness, and they didn't know anything else. Yu Manman didn't say anything, and Chen Guang was naturally tight-lipped.
At the end of that day, Xuanyuan Haoling covered up the matter on the grounds of hidden illness, and no matter what, he saved himself some trouble. Thinking of this, Yu Manman felt a burst of gratitude to Xuanyuan Hao.
When the pen was in the middle of the water, two lines of words appeared on the rice paper in front of me: Vote for me to repay Qiong Yao with a peach. The penmanship is subdued and frustrated, and the handwriting is vigorous and powerful, not like the average lady.
In modern times, Luo Man is an out-and-out talented woman with excellent grades and has always been among the best.
Since I was a child, I was enrolled in various interest classes by my mother: dance, guzheng, piano, flute, painting, calligraphy, chess, judo. When I was forced to learn this, I always complained, but now I have to thank my mother for giving me a skill in ancient times.
Yu Manman was concentrating, and Starlight ran in.
"Miss, Miss Two and Miss Three are here. ”
"Well, let them in. ”
"But it's definitely not a good thing for the second lady to come, the young lady is still..."
"It's okay, you go first. ”
"All right, slave and maid, let's go. ”
Seeing that Starlight was gone, Yu Manman put away all the rice paper on the table.
Yu Manman was illiterate in the past, and when she started writing for the first time here, she shocked Wang Ma, but Yu Manman didn't explain, and they didn't dare to ask.
The two sisters, Wang Ma and Xingguang, are sincere to themselves, and Yu Manman is not afraid that they will discover their secrets. It's just that Yu Feifei is different, not to mention that there is an unknown depression this time, which is controversial, so let's put these away first.
The bead curtain trembled, Yu Feifei wore a goose-yellow cloud smoke shirt and a thousand water skirts, combed Hanyan hibiscus buns, and walked in with exquisite makeup. She was followed by a girl in a pink dress.
Yu Manman looked at the two people opposite and looked at them quietly.
Yu Feifei looked bright and moving, and she kept smiling on her face from the moment she entered the door, and her attitude was diametrically opposite to that time when he Yanju. Yu Luoluo looks gentle and moving, Luo Luo is generous, with a decent smile on his face, which makes people not hate.
"Big sister is good. Yu Luoluo leaned over and saluted Yu Manman, and his voice was tactful.
"The third sister get up, it's all a family, so you don't have to be so polite. ”
After seeing Yu Luo get up, Yu Manman walked to the chair on the side and sat down, and said to the two: "The two sisters sit down and talk." ”
"Thank you, big sister. Yu Luoluo gave a light blessing again, and then walked to the lower right of Yu Manman and sat down.
Yu Feifei was also informal, walked straight to Yu Manman's right and sat down, and said with a smile: "What is my sister busy with these days? ”
Yu Manman was drinking tea, and when she heard this, she looked up at Yu Feifei: "The weather is hot, and I don't like to go out when I have nothing to do." ”
"I see"
Seeing that Yu Manman did not respond, Yu Feifei was a little embarrassed, and a trace of anger crossed her face. When I saw the house full of ornaments, I was even more dissatisfied. couldn't help but say: "I haven't seen you for a few days, my sister's Le'an Courtyard has really changed a lot, and it looks a little better than my sister's Fanghua Courtyard." ”
"If my sister likes it, she can come to live with me often, although this yard is not big, but there are still a few vacant rooms. ”
"This.... How can my sister come and disturb me? ”
"You and I are sisters, so we don't need to worry too much. ”
"That's... All right.... My sister thanked my sister first. ”
"Well, the two younger sisters came to me today, is there something wrong?" Seeing that Yu Feifei had been going around and around, Yu Manman inserted a straight knife.
"My sister really has a blue heart, and she can't hide it from you. ”
Yu Feifei saw that Yu Manman saw her intentions, and Yu Feifei did not hide it: "Just now, the Taishi Mansion handed over a post, saying that the eldest lady Liu Xuanqin invited her to swim in the lake together on the boat tomorrow." ”
"Oh, since that's the case, the second sister just responded, what are you doing here?"
"My sister doesn't know, I heard the attendant who sent the post say that many sons and nobles in the capital will go. I thought that in the past, I took my third sister there, but my sister had never seen these banquets, so I wanted to go with you. ”
As for this, Yu Manman understood Yu Feifei's intentions.
Generally, in this kind of gathering, the nobles will compare piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and songs, and this kind of talent. In the eyes of everyone, he is a straw bag with no ink on his chest and no words, and he only makes people laugh.
Yu Luoluo, who had been sitting quietly, was about to say something, but when he saw Yu Feifei glaring at him sharply, he didn't dare to move again, but he looked a little anxious.
Yu Manman, who seemed to be thinking about it with his head down, but was actually secretly observing, saw the movements of the two, and was even more sure in his heart that this lake tour was not simple.
Seeing that Yu Manman kept her head down and didn't speak, Yu Feifei was a little anxious: "Sister, have you thought about it?"
"I've never been interested in these people who visit the lake to enjoy the flowers, and I don't understand those etiquette, and I will be embarrassed by the Taishou Mansion when I go, so I won't go. ”
Hearing Yu Manman's refusal, the expression on Yu Luoluo's face finally relaxed.
Seeing Yu Manman's refusal, Yu Feifei was a little stunned, originally thinking that this straw bag would happily agree when she heard that she was taking her out to swim in the lake, but she didn't expect to refuse.
Thinking of her plan, Yu Feifei didn't give up, and continued to smile: "It's okay, if you have a sister, you will definitely take care of your sister and won't make your sister embarrassed." ”
"No need, my sister just went with my third sister, and I don't like to go out on a hot day, so my sister doesn't have to persuade me anymore. ”
Seeing that she was rejected again, the smile on Yu Feifei's face could no longer be hung up. Looking at Yu Manman, who looked cold and indifferent, he snorted angrily and walked out without saying goodbye.
Yu Luoluo saw that Yu Feifei was gone, and immediately stood up and said to Yu Manman: "Big sister, second sister is this character, don't mind." ”
"Well, I know"
"It's not early, I should go back, big sister, sister say goodbye"
"Three Sisters Walk Slowly"
Yu Luoluo gently blessed Yu Manman, and then walked out the door.
Yu Manman looked at Yu Luoluo's back, his eyes narrowed slightly.
Seeing that both of them were leaving, Wang Ma walked in, "Miss, what are the second and third misses going to do?"
"Liu Xuanqin, the eldest lady of the Taishi Mansion, invited me to visit the lake, and asked me to go with them tomorrow. ”
"How could the second miss be so kind, Miss agreed?"
Yu Manman got up, walked to the window, looked at the willow tree outside the window and said, "Naturally, she refused, otherwise she wouldn't have left angrily." ”
"Well, it's right that Miss doesn't go, Second Miss is insidious and vicious, it's always good to be careful. ”
"Mother Wang, do you know that Liu Xuanqin of Taishi's Mansion?"
"This slave knows it, not only the slave and maid know, but everyone in Beichen Kingdom knows it. Hearing Liu Xuanqin, Wang Ma came to the spirit.
"Oh, why is that?"
"Miss, you have lost your memory, you don't know, Liu Xuanqin is the niece of Concubine Liu Shufei in the palace, and she has many heirs in the palace, but there is only one daughter, Liu Xuanqin, so she is very favored. It is said that she is the first beauty of Beichen and is known as the first beauty of Beichen Kingdom. ”
"I see"
Seeing that Yu Manman no longer spoke, Wang Ma lost interest in an instant, and saw that Yu Manman did not command, so she packed up the teacup and gently withdrew.
Yu Manman leaned in front of the window, watching the willows fluttering outside the window, and his heart was in a trance. These courtyards and backhouses are too complicated, and they must leave, but after they leave, what will Wang Ma and Chenguang Xingguang do.
In any case, this Taishou Mansion is not a place to stay for a long time. Yu Manman secretly made up his mind in his heart: after these injuries on his body are returned, he will leave here.
The next day, Yu Feifei went out with Yu Luo early in the morning and returned at dusk. In the next few days, I practiced piano, chess, calligraphy and painting in Fanghua Courtyard to prepare for April 16.
On the surface, Yu Manman is still reading, practicing calligraphy, drinking tea, and his life is not comfortable. In fact, she secretly prepared that Yu Feifei wanted to participate in the selection of concubines so easily, it was not so easy.
Everyone had different thoughts, and in the blink of an eye, it was the day when the prince chose a concubine.
