Hearing her say this, Aunt Wen and Qingyun stopped crying, they both raised their teary eyes and began to think about the whole thing, and their emotions gradually calmed down. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Aunt Wen didn't know something, "Yun'er, why does the old lady have to ask you to go, the eldest lady and the third lady are about the same age as you, and their appearance is also excellent, why not let one of them go?" What's more, the eldest lady is the eldest daughter, and it stands to reason that she should marry before you. ”

Ning Jinyun smiled bitterly, but soon returned to normal, and slowly explained, "At the luncheon just now, Aunt Li has already said the reason, she said that the eldest sister and the eldest son Li are in love, they are already a couple, and the third sister is too stupid and stupid, afraid of colliding with King Lu, so I am the most suitable one." ”

She didn't say anything more, and she didn't want to say it in front of Aunt Wen.

In fact, Aunt Li's words are just excuses, the reason why grandmother let her enter the Lu Wangfu is all because she is the daughter of the Ning family. The identity of the concubine is much more noble than that of the concubine, and the grandmother wants her to get a more noble status and glory in the palace by virtue of the identity of the concubine, so that it will be more beneficial to the Ning family.

After hearing this, Qingyun couldn't hold back her grief and indignation, and spat on the ground, "Phew, what is the eldest lady, Li Gongzi clearly doesn't look down on her, why is she a couple with Li Gongzi?" If you want a slave to come and see, you should give her to King Lu as a concubine. ”

Ning Jinyun shook his head slightly, his expression became more serious, "Now is not the time to get angry and scold, my grandmother said that I will have to go to Yanzhou to meet King Lu after the autumn, there is still more than a month left before the autumn, I must think of a solution to this problem in this period of time, and I can't really be sent to the palace." ”

"Yun'er, have you thought of a feasible way?" Aunt Wen asked softly with a sad look in her eyes.

Hearing this, Ning Jinyun didn't answer, her eyelashes blinked twice like thin feathers, and finally a fan-shaped shadow hung on the fair skin under her eyes, and her thoughts drifted far away, recalling the previous events.

In her previous life, although she did not go to King Lu as a concubine as her grandmother wished, her third sister Ning Jinrao went, and she went voluntarily.

At that time, Ning Jinrao heard the news from somewhere and learned about the Sun family in Qingzhou. The young lady of the Sun family was originally the concubine of King Kang, but later because the original Princess Kang died of a serious illness, Miss Sun, who was deeply favored by King Kang, was straightened out and became the new Princess Kang, with infinite scenery. Ning Jinrao was very envious of him, and went to King Lu's mansion, which was closest to Qingzhou, as soon as her mind was hot, hoping that she could be like Miss Sun, and be favored by King Lu, and embark on a road to glory from then on.

Of course, her wish could not be realized, and in the end, it hurt her cousin Li Yuanqian.

……

Ning Jinyun thought of this, and she had some ideas in her head, but these small ideas were not mature enough to get her out of the predicament.

……

A few days later, Mrs. Ning had already begun to prepare for this matter, she specially bought a lot of new clothes for Ning Jinyun, and also ordered a batch of valuable jewelry in the best jewelry store in Qingzhou.

Mrs. Ning even asked Mrs. Shen for advice, Mrs. Shen had lived in the capital for a long time, had seen a lot of things, and would have a better understanding of women's dressing and the preferences of the princes, so she wanted Mrs. Shen to help come up with some ideas to dress her granddaughter more outstandingly, so that she could be favored by King Lu when she met King Lu.

One day, Mrs. Shen came to Ning Mansion as a guest, and her son Shen Yunxuan also came with her.

Ning Jinyun happened to see him in the verandah on the side of Qixiang Courtyard, so he went over to say hello.

"Shen Gongzi, you came with Mrs. Shen again?" Ning Jinyun asked politely. Today, she wore a newly made pink lotus silk dress, which reflected her pink and fair cheeks, and looked very good.

Shen Yunxuan sat on the red lacquered railing, glanced up at her, and then replied lazily, "Naturally, I came here with my mother, otherwise why would I come to your Ning Mansion alone." ”

Ning Jinyun couldn't help but feel funny when he looked bored when he looked bored, "It's boring to see you here alone, why don't you go in and sit with Mrs. Shen." ”

"My mother is talking to your grandmother, and if I listen to it next to me, it will only be more boring, so it is better for me to come out by myself and hide and relax."

Seeing that there was still a place next to Shen Yunxuan, Ning Jinyun sat down.

"Is there anything important that Mrs. Shen wants to tell my grandmother?" Ning Jinyun asked curiously, this is a special period, and she wants to know as much as possible about all the situations on her grandmother's side.

Shen Yunxuan didn't answer immediately when he heard her ask, he was silent for a moment, and the look in his eyes became a little complicated.

He paused before he said, "Actually, it's just a little chatter, and it's not a big deal. ”

Ning Jinyun didn't take it to heart, nodded and responded, "In this way, in fact, our family doesn't often come to guests, and my grandmother is usually quite bored by herself, but now that your mother comes to talk to her, she should be very happy." ”

"You...... Do you have a good relationship with your grandmother? Shen Yunxuan suddenly asked.

Ning Jinyun was puzzled, "Fortunately, grandmother is not bad to our sisters, why did you remember to ask this?" ”

Shen Yunxuan looked down at the ground and whispered, "I heard that King Lu of Yanzhou is planning to recruit concubines, and your grandmother seems to want to send you over, and you agreed, right?" ”

Hearing this, Ning Jinyun was dumbfounded, not knowing how to answer Shen Yunxuan. She didn't expect Shen Yunxuan to know about this so quickly, it seems that she should have listened to Mrs. Shen.

Ning Jinyun was a girl after all, and if she was known that she might go to serve a notorious prince, she would inevitably feel a little embarrassed, and her cheeks couldn't help but start to turn red and hot, and she was a little ashamed.

When Shen Yunxuan first heard his mother talk about this, he was very surprised, and at the same time felt sorry for Ning Jinyun, he couldn't believe that Ning Jinyun would agree to this kind of thing, so he guessed that there might be a hidden meaning behind this matter.

Ning Jinyun lowered his eyes and said perfunctorily in a low voice, "There are some things that are difficult to say clearly, so Shen Gongzi doesn't need to ask more." ”

She didn't dare to tell Shen Yunxuan the truth, lest it would be passed on to her grandmother after Mrs. Shen knew about it, but she refused to lie and admit that she really wanted to meet King Lu, and she couldn't let go of this self-esteem.

After Shen Yunxuan heard this, it was inconvenient to say anything more, after all, he and Ning Jinyun had just known each other for a short time, and at most they were nodding friends, and it was really difficult to ask about other people's private affairs.
