Chapter 227
"What's wrong!?" Without waiting for Ling Xue to speak, Han Wenying, who was always paying attention to the movement in the door, broke into the door, and her gaze as sharp as a gun pointed directly at Ling Xue who was standing on the edge of the bed. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Info just when her eyes moved to her daughter, who was sitting on the bed and didn't have time to lie down again in a panic, her sharp eyes suddenly turned into a look of joy and disbelief.
"Nian'er, are you awake?"
Han Wunian, who had half of her body down in the "......", didn't know how to answer for a while, so she had to set her eyes on the culprit who made her pretend to be sick.
"Yes, Lord Han, Miss Wunian is fine." In Han Wunian's resentful and accusatory gaze, Ling Xue stepped forward to explain unhurriedly. "Miss Wu Nian, the previous lethargy was just a mistakenly ingested a herb called Sleeping Beauty, and I had already given her an antidote."
"Is that so? Nian'er? The shrewd Han Wenying was still suspicious, and turned her head to ask her daughter for evidence.
Although "......" despised Ling Xue's ability to talk serious nonsense in his heart, but because he had to give an explanation for his illness at this time, Han Wunian had to reluctantly cooperate with the statement of the person in front of him. She nodded with a sincere and slightly guilty gaze, "Yes, Mother." ”
The doubts in her heart have not been eliminated, but Han Wenying is a person who has experienced strong winds and waves after all, and her daughter's sobriety is indeed inseparable from the young man in front of her. She no longer asked about the truth of the facts, and after expressing her gratitude earnestly, she left Ling Xue, who was about to leave, on the grounds that she was going to hold a banquet in the evening to reward all the disciples in the palace in person.
In fact, Ling Xue didn't really want to leave, you must know that the purpose of her trip was not for this Miss Han who pretended to be sick and escaped from marriage, but for her bitter fiancé Ning Buhui. The person she should see at the moment hasn't been seen yet, how can she be willing to leave so easily.
Fang Cai's false resignation was just to dispel the suspicion in Han Wenying's heart, and her hospitality at the moment was right in the middle, and after three attempts to refuse, she had to smile and "reluctantly" agree to stay at the banquet.
Under the guidance of the maid, Ling Xue walked around the Shenjiang Mansion, and during the period of wandering, she still failed to meet Ning Junshi's righteous son, that is, Ning Buhui, who she came to find this time.
"I heard that Ning Junshi's righteous son Buhui is a young hero, suave and suave, and he has a deep relationship with Miss Wunian's childhood sweetheart. Unfortunately, I didn't have the opportunity to see it today. Seeing that there was no result for such a masked fly, Ling Xue couldn't help but speak, and she seemed to regretfully test the maid NPC who showed her the way.
"You said Ning Gongzi?" I don't want this maid to seem to be just an NPC leading the way, but her intelligence is not low. As soon as she heard Ling Xue's exclamation, she immediately answered naturally. "Ning Gongzi went out to run errands, and he should be back before the dinner tonight. After all, Miss wakes up, it's a big deal! ”
Hearing this, Ling Xue nodded reassuringly, "I've been around for so long, I'm also a little tired, let's take the girl back to the wing." Since the person she was looking for was not there, there was no need for her to continue wandering around the Divine General's Mansion.
"Childe, please." The maid did not suspect him, and hurriedly led Ling Xue to another corridor.
Time passed in a flash, and only an hour or two after returning to the wing, someone outside invited Ling Xue to move to the terrace of the Shenjiang Mansion for dinner.
At this time, the sky began to gradually darken as night fell, and the Shenjiang Mansion near Xiangcheng, where the four seasons are distinct, still had a sense of dryness in the early autumn evening, and this terrace became a good place to hold banquets.
It is built on the mountainside, and under the stage is a bamboo sea with green waves. The verdant bamboos and the canopy of the ancient trees around the terrace bring a little coolness to this place, and the restlessness caused by the sultry heat is blown by the evening breeze here, and it suddenly dissipates a lot.
When Ling Xue arrived, the banquet had already been set up, and most of the people had already taken their seats. It is said to be a banquet, but in fact, everyone eats at separate tables around the circular terrace, and does not forget to enjoy the singing and dancing performance in the center of the terrace.
Under Han Wenying's introduction, Ling Xue was gentle and friendly and saluted everyone present.
"Okay, the banquet is about to start, nephew Yan Shi, hurry up and take a seat." Seeing that it was getting late, Han Wenying didn't delay any longer, pointed to the seat vacated on her right hand side of the main seat, and motioned for her to take a seat.
According to the rules of respecting the right followed by the ancients, Ling Xue was a little flattered, but she was just a guest, and she had to sit down and look at the middle-aged man sitting opposite him in a crane white shirt, with white temples but still handsome, and smiled at him slightly apologetically.
Just because this person is none other than Ning Junshi, whose reputation has not fallen to Han Wenying. If there is a woman behind every successful man who silently supports him, then behind Han Wenying, a world-famous general, the man who advises her is the Ning Junshi in front of him, who does not look old at all.
It can be said that as long as Han Wenying has been famous, this Ning Junshi has followed her for as long as possible. It's just that this person is low-key and rarely appears in front of people, so far everyone on the rivers and lakes only remembers that he is following Han Wenying's title of military advisor in front of the general's tent, but they don't know his real name and origin.
Although Ling Xue didn't know why such a man with the best wisdom in the world would willingly stand under the brilliance of a woman, and even after she resigned and retired to take over the Divine General's Mansion, she still did not give up, but Ling Xue knew very well that this person's position in the Divine General's Mansion was very important. At least, the position he sat in should belong to him on weekdays.
This Ning Junshi is worthy of being a breezy and moon-like figure, and in the face of Ling Xue's apology, he smiled indifferently and raised his glass to signal.
"Humph! You thief really have some ability, even Uncle Ning deceived him! When Ling Xue raised her glass in return, a disdainful snort came from her side.
There is no need to move her eyes, Ling Xue also knows who this coquettish hum is coming from. She took a sip of wine with a faint expression, and after Ning Junshi's gaze turned elsewhere, she turned her head carelessly and smiled meaninglessly at Han Wunian, who was sitting beside her. "I really don't know where I abruptly attacked Miss Han, and I actually provoked Miss Han to be a thief?"
"You!" Knowing that what he had done could not be declared, Han Wunian was so angry that he slammed the wine glass in his hand, and the crisp sound instantly attracted everyone's attention.
"Nian'er, what's wrong?" A sharp gaze swept gently from the main seat.
She glared at her fiercely with a leisurely expression, and her face was barely engraved with the words "If you have the ability, you can tell the truth", Han Wunian had to swallow the silver teeth in her stomach, she pretended to be okay and smiled sweetly, "Mother, my daughter accidentally slipped her hand." ”
How could her daughter Han Wenying not understand, although she didn't believe her careless theory, but because of the presence of many disciples, it was really difficult to investigate this matter, so she didn't say more, but at the moment when she retracted her gaze, she dropped a sentence, "Nian'er, Yan Shi's nephew is your life-saving benefactor, you have to thank others." ”
