Chapter 3 In an instant, it is suspected that it is a fairy shadow, and I still remember it in my dream, that Quyang Pass!

The man grinned, didn't dodge, and grabbed her wrist with Wei Jiang's action. The www.biquge.info of the pen and fun pavilion also put her hand under her nose and sniffed: "Sister is so fragrant." ”

Wei Jiang was angry and angry, and said, "Don't let go yet!" He shouted in the direction of Cui's courtyard again: "Come on, come on!" ”

That person was Cui's nephew, Pei Deqing, seeing that Wei Jiang wanted to summon someone, it was not easy to tease him for a while. After all, it is the mansion of an important minister, and if someone breaks it, I am afraid that I will not be able to bear it.

Pei Deqing said with a smile: "Sister, don't worry, Xiaosheng lost his words for a while." Let people see it, my sister's face is not good-looking! ”

Wei Jiang angrily shook off his hand, stomped his foot vigorously, and said hatefully: "Dengzi, don't be complacent, this girl will call someone to come and break your dog's leg!" ”

Pei Deqing said with a smile: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say, Xiaosheng's dog legs, as long as my sister asks for it, Xiaosheng won't give it." ”

This person didn't eat oil and salt, and he was too lazy to talk nonsense with him anymore, so Wei Jiang left in a hurry. I was afraid that the man would come with me, and when I turned around, I saw no man.

The matter of waiting for the banquet guests was temporarily suspended, and Cui's rarely rested for two days, and on this day Wei Dongkang came back and said to her: "How is Yan Niang's body these days?" I heard that after several banquets, Yan Niang did not show up? ”

"Yes." Cui Shi smiled, "Yan Niang doesn't like to see people, you know, it's not that she's really sick, it's just impatient to laugh at people." Leave it to her! ”

Wei Dongkang frowned: "She's messing around!" As a stepmother, you should also talk about her, don't indulge her too much! ”

"Yes." Cui Shi agreed, but he wondered in his heart, Wei Dongkang has always spoiled his daughter and acquiesced in all her rude behavior, but what happened today?

"Master," Cui Shi said tentatively, "is there something about Yan Niang?" ”

Wei Dongkang smiled slightly: "This kid is about to be in time, and there are some things that should be planned." ”

"The master wants to kiss Yan Niang? Which son? ”

Wei Dongkang said with a smile: "There are so many families, all of them reveal the intention of proposing, Yan Niang's talent, you can't be wronged, you have to think carefully." ”

"The master personally chooses a relative for Yan Niang, and he will definitely choose the best!" Cui flattered, "It's just that Jiang Niang and her sister are only more than half a year apart from their birthdays, and the concubine is thinking, should I give Jiang Niang a look at each other?" ”

"Hmm." Speaking of the concubine, the smile on Wei Dongkang's face faded, "You look at it, find a safe one, don't lose the face of the Wei family." ”

Cui Shi hurriedly responded with a smile.

It was just night, Wei Yan sat in front of the window, plucking the strings. Ruyue walked in and said, "Miss, Sixi is here, and it is said that the master asked you to go." ”

Wei Yan straightened his clothes and wiped some rouge on his pale face. She was lazy in town, didn't dress up, and didn't go out, and her father reprimanded her more than once for this.

She walked slowly into her father's study, Wei Dongkang sat under the bookshelf, saw his daughter coming, looked up and down, and seemed quite dissatisfied: "What are you wearing?" Monkey business! ”

Wei Yan was wearing an old pale cyan robe, wide and wide, without any patterns and decorations on it. Although the hair was carefully combed, only two small silver hairpins hung from it. Fortunately, his face is fine, not as pale as paper as before.

"Father." Wei Yan pursed her lips and said, "My daughter is about to fall asleep, and I don't want my father to summon me, I'm afraid that my father will be in a hurry and won't have time to change her clothes." What is the father looking for his daughter? ”

Wei Dongkang sighed, helpless to take this daughter: "It's nothing important." When you come to see me, that's it, when you go to meet others, you always need to be careful about your clothes, you are older, don't mess around like before! ”

"Yes!" Wei Yan answered, and stood at the door with his head down.

"You sit." Wei Dongkang pointed to the table opposite, with a pipa on it, "Since I asked Mr. Yuan for advice, I saw that you had a good conversation with her, and I listened to a song, can I make any progress?" ”

Wei Yan held the pipa, knelt on the round pu mat, thought about what kind of tune his father liked to listen to, and then plucked the strings and played a Yangguan.

After finishing the song, Wei Dongkang put away his unhappy expression and smiled: "That's it." There you go. ”

Wei Yan saluted and exited the door.

When the bright moon was in the sky, the laurel trees outside the study were fragrant, and Wei Yan stood in the courtyard for a while before going back. Since her father newly married, there seems to be an invisible wall between her and her father, and she also wants to be a delicate and considerate daughter, and do her filial piety in front of her father, but she can't forgive her when she thinks that her mother's bones are not cold, and her father will marry someone else!

Wei Dongkang didn't know his daughter's thoughts. Yan Niang was originally arrogant, just like her biological mother. He wasn't always at home and turned a blind eye to what was going on in the backyard. Even if Yan Niang is rude, it doesn't matter, she is not destined to become an ordinary woman, marrying her husband, husband and children. She deserves a home that belongs to her and matches her talents!

Wei Dongkang stood up with a smile and walked behind the screen next to the bookshelf, where a man in a gorgeous dress and a golden crown sat up, looking up at him and smiling, "Lord Wei is too stingy!" Such a good daughter is hidden so deeply! ”

"It's not that the lower official deliberately hid the little girl, her temperament is the most cold and arrogant. I don't know what kind of character will be able to lower her in the future! Wei Dongkang smiled and sighed, looking deeply at the golden-crowned man.

"Oh, that's Lord Wei's worry," the golden-crowned man stood up, walked to the window, and stared at the laurel tree outside the door, "There must be a woman who is not mediocre next to an extraordinary man......"

On the first day of the new year, Mrs. Wei took Wei Yan, Wei Jiang, Cui Ningjuan, and dozens of people to Qingquan Temple to offer incense. met a familiar woman: "Ouch, isn't this the old lady of the in-laws?" What a coincidence! ”

Mrs. Wei smiled: "Is Mengchan's eldest sister, Mrs. Pei?" ”

"Exactly, exactly." Mrs. Pei smiled, "The old lady is strong, look at this complexion, she is more energetic than us people." Huh, ...... this? ”

Mrs. Pei's gaze swept over Cui Ningjuan, Wei Jiang, and finally saw Wei Yan.

The old lady glanced at Wei Yan, and Wei Yan stepped forward to salute: "Senior Wei Yan, I've seen Mrs. Pei." ”

"Good boy. How do you get points like this? Mrs. Pei smiled, "According to the generation, you should call me aunt!" ”

Wei Yan lowered his eyes and said, "Yes." ”

The old lady had something to do, and she didn't want to say more to Mrs. Pei, "Don't blame Mrs. Pei, these girls are spoiled by me." After the incense is over, I will talk to Mrs. Pei again. ”

The old lady hurriedly said goodbye, and the old lady, who had already known each other, stepped forward and welcomed the old lady into the main hall. Everyone put on the incense, and the master who led the way said: "The host is in the back compartment, and the old lady is here." ”

Cui Ningjuan said: "Ancestor, Juan'er has a stomachache, can you ask Sister Jiang to accompany me to change clothes?" ”

"Go, go, our old man listens to the teacher's lectures, you juniors must be bored, you go to the back mountain to see the scenery, look at the flowers, and the people around you follow carefully and take care of the young ladies!"

From people hurriedly should "yes". Cui Ningjuan pulled Wei Jiang and left quickly, without asking Wei Yan if she wanted to go together.

Wei Yan didn't want to go outside to bask in the sun, she hugged the old lady and said, "Grandmother, granddaughter is with you, right?" ”

The old lady patted her hand: "I know you love quiet." Master Jingyi told me the scriptures, you don't understand, you are next door, wait for me! ”

"Yes!" Wei Yan responded. The nun took her into the next room, "Miss Wei, please sit down for a while, please ask the lady's noble servant to go and bring some tea and snacks with the poor nun." ”

Wei Yan nodded, and said to Ruyue who followed behind him: "You go with Shitai!" ”

She looked at this simple meditation room, and saw a half-read scripture book on the table, so she took it and read it.

There was a creak, and the door was pushed open.

Wei Yan looked at the visitor and was taken aback. It's a strange man!

The man was dressed in a golden crown, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and when he saw Wei Yan, he smiled and said, "How is Miss Wei?" ”

Wei Yan said coldly: "Get out!" ”

"Miss Wei, don't rush me away yet, you should think about who I am and why I am here." The man's expression was calm, and he blatantly looked back and forth on Wei Yan's face and body.

Wei Yan thought about it slightly, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

He can ask his father and grandmother to arrange for him, and he can make the monks and nuns of the royal monastery move......

The man sat down on a chair in the room, "It seems that Miss Wei has already thought of it." ”

"His Royal Highness King Yong?" Wei Yan guessed, and at the same time, in his heart, there was a coldness.

Her father specially instructed her to follow her grandmother into incense, and repeatedly stated that she needed to pay attention to her makeup......

It turns out that this is exactly what it is......

"How do you feel when you are put on the table by your father and grandmother?" King Yong stared at her face.

"It doesn't matter. Please explain your intentions, Wei Yan listened. ”

"Today's Miss Wei is more charming and moving than the first time I saw her in the study that day!" King Yong smiled.

The first time I saw the study...... What a study room for the first time! Wei Yan complained in her heart, father, what are you being a daughter?

"Your Highness, please respect yourself." Wei Yan retreated again and again, walked to the door, and wanted to push the door out, but heard King Yong say: "Miss Wei is a smart person, you should know that this king has not ordered you to go out!" ”

"What do Your Highness and I have to say? Wei Yan's fate is probably already doomed! Wei Yan's voice trembled irrepressibly. No matter how proud she is, she is only a little woman after all, she will be angry, she will be afraid, she will be disappointed, she will be sad. All the time, living in the connivance of her father and the flattery of others, she almost forgot that her own destiny was never in her own hands. A word from her father can make her marry or even let her die! Not to mention, the man in front of him, a nobleman and a regent of the auxiliary dynasty, has the power of life and death of many people!

He was right, if he didn't let her go, she couldn't go.

Wei Yan grabbed his cuffs and stood by the door, his back to Yongwang Yuwenrui.

Her back was straight, her jet-black hair was draped over her shoulders, and her turquoise-encrusted silver hairpin shone with a ghostly glow. She was deliberately dressed up, different from the free and easy playing of the pipa in the study that day, the crimson half-arm skirt, the silk silk inlaid with pearls and jade, the embroidered moire belt that tightly tied the thin waist, and the jade earrings shaking in the ears...... All set off her luxury and grace as a young lady of the family.

Yu Wenrui got up and approached her, a warm breath sprayed on her neck, "Miss Wei, the way you play the pipa, it's beautiful." A stunningly glimpsed and unforgettable. This king is nearing the age of his establishment, and he is no longer the ignorant boy who is easily emotional, and there are some exceptions for you,...... Today, when I meet you face to face, I realize that you are not only beautiful, but also very intelligent. The king is very relieved that this trip was not in vain. Your father is right, perhaps, you are more qualified than anyone else to stay with this king. ”

Yu Wenrui's words made Wei Yan's heart tremble, she turned around suddenly, leaned her back against the door panel, and gasped nervously: "Your Highness! Your Highness! No matter what my father promised you, I am still Miss Weifu! Please, please let me go. ”

Yu Wenrui sighed, his eyes gentle, "Miss Wei, how can this king be willing to force people." If you can, this king also hopes that he can get your heart first. But—" he paused, then sighed again, "it seems that the king cannot wait for that day to come, and his father is planning for the king, and has decided to let the king take the daughter of a relative as a side concubine. But at this moment, this king has decided that you are the most suitable candidate for the side concubine! ”

A wry smile appeared at the corner of Wei Yan's mouth, side concubine, isn't she a concubine?

She thought to herself: In her father's mind, her daughter is only worthy of being a concubine? I thought that my father's love was like a mountain, and he could give her a stable life, but in the end, it was just a plot to use and sell her!

"This king values you so much, don't you still want to?" Yu Wenrui's voice was soft, but in his eyes, there was a domineering that could not be refused.

"Yes, I don't! Not reconciled! ”

Knowing that she couldn't refuse, she had no choice, but she was still stubborn and sneered: "His Royal Highness King Yong is drooping, it should be the luck that many women dream of." But I don't want to, I don't want to be a concubine! ”

"If Your Highness really values me, how can you disregard my face and confine me here? And how can you use the position of concubine to humiliate me? Although Wei Yan is soft-spoken, he also knows that His Royal Highness is just a conspiracy to me. You need my father's support, and my father, by your side, can also ask for peace of mind! Wei Yan knows what kind of role he plays in it! ”

Wei Yan saluted: "Your Highness has no other orders, please let the courtiers retire!" ”

With that, she opened the door and walked out with her head held high.

The dazzling sunlight poured in, enveloping her in a halo, but she was cold all over her body, and she didn't feel half of the warmth.

She forced herself to calm down, and walked a long way, Fang was shocked to realize that she had walked into a forest.

Raising his eyes, he saw a pair of figures, dodging left and right, hiding behind an ancient tree, with a touch of skirt corners, which was enough for Wei Yan to recognize who it was.

Unintentionally snooping on other people's privacy, Wei Yan turned around and walked back. She walked very slowly, thinking as she went: Grandmother deliberately led me to see King Yong, and she would not really listen to the abbot's lecture next door. At this time, if you want to walk around, it is difficult to guarantee that you will not bump into King Yong again......

She made up her mind not to go to the wing, but to the left, and walked out of the temple gate.

The next day, Mrs. Pei took her son and prepared a generous gift, saying that she asked to marry Wei Jiang.

It was a happy event, but for some reason, Wei Dongkang was furious and threatened to strangle his concubine with his own hands!

Wei Yan hurriedly walked into the main courtyard, and heard Wei Dongkang's angry voice from a distance: "Evil obstacle! I want to clear my name for the rest of my life, but it will be ruined in your hands! Walking inside, a Buddhist scripture hit the door frame next to her ear, and Wei Dongkang shouted angrily: "Shameless things! ”

Wei Jiang's face was full of tears, and he knelt on the ground, his cheeks were high and swollen, and there was blood on his forehead.

Wei Yan hurriedly stepped forward, pressed the handkerchief on her forehead, turned her head, and said to her father, "Father, please calm your anger." ”

"How do you calm your anger? Go away, don't let this shameless, private meeting with a man spoil you! ”

Wei Dongkang's words made Wei Yan stunned. Mrs. Pei's face was scornful, "Lord Wei, don't be angry. It's all my fault for being an unfilial son! The two children have their own intentions, it is a good thing, and there are a lot of adults in Wei, so it will fulfill them! ”

Cui Shi also persuaded: "The master originally instructed the concubine to find a suitable family for Jiang Niang, but now that the matter has come to this, it is better to ......" "Hmph! Wei Dongkang snorted coldly, and wanted to scold again, but he heard Wei Yan ask loudly: "Wei Jiang, do you like this person?" ”

Wei Jiang hated: "Phew! I'm blind, and I won't be happy with such a lewd person! My father didn't allow me to plead, but only listened to his one-sided words, helped outsiders, and wronged my reputation! ”

Wei Yan got up and saluted, "My daughter knows her identity and doesn't dare to disobey her father, but Jiang Niang is so sambling, why doesn't her father listen to her?" ”

Wei Dongkang turned his head away and stopped talking angrily. I heard Wei Jiang crying: "Yesterday when I entered the incense, I didn't go to the forest with him for a private meeting at all!" I don't know why he has my handkerchief and hosta on him. That's not a token of love at all, I haven't given it to him! As soon as I entered the door, my father angrily asked me if these things were mine, and as soon as I responded, he beat and scolded me......

"You kid, even if you're afraid of being scolded, you can't clear yourself like this, doesn't this make my family Qing'er sad?" Mrs. Pei interrupted Wei Jiang's words, looking displeased.

"Dare to ask Mrs. Pei," Wei Yan stepped forward, with a cold smile on the corner of his mouth, "When the two of them have a private meeting, can you be there?" ”

Mrs. Pei covered her mouth and smiled: "How can this be?" The children are shy, how can they ...... in front of me"

"That's it! If you haven't seen it with your own eyes, how can you be sure that they are happy and private for life? ”

"This, my family Qing'er told me!"

"But my sister Wei Jiang also told me that she didn't!" Wei Yan didn't let a step and stared at Mrs. Pei, "If my sister has affection for Ling Gongzi, why is she unwilling to take advantage of the situation and get her wish?" ”

"Ouch, Yan Niang, this is what you don't understand." Mrs. Pei smiled, "Jiang Niang is thin-skinned, ashamed to admit it, and there are people who talk nonsense. That's too much to do. The matter between the two of them, you are an unmarried daughter, it is inconvenient to intervene here. ”

"What Mrs. Pei said is," Wei Yan said with a smile, "the younger generation will make amends to the elders and Mrs. Hello in the family later." But Mrs. Pei, the younger generation is the witness of the day, my sister Wei Jiang, although she and her cousin Ning Juan went to the back mountain forest first, but they turned back halfway and stayed with me all the time. Tag after! ”

"You're lying!" Pei Deqing, who was kneeling on the ground, couldn't help but open his mouth and shouted, "Sister Jiang'er and I are in one place, and we are separated from others, and we don't even bring our entourage, how can we be with you?" ”

"Pei Gongzi, this is strange, why should everyone believe your words alone? My sister and I don't even count? ”

"There are witnesses! There are witnesses! Mrs. Pei suddenly remembered something, her eyes lit up, "Call Ning Juan, Ning Juan knows about this!" ”

Wei Dongkang's face is even more ugly, and his family is ugly, what a shame! He was so angry that he turned his head away, his eyes closed, desperately trying to suppress his anger.

Cui's people quickly summoned Cui Ningjuan, she saluted everyone in the house, Pei Deqing couldn't wait to shout: "Cousin Juan, tell them quickly, did you see me and Sister Jiang'er in the forest yesterday?" ”

Cui Ningjuan was quite shy: "This ...... Cousin, in front of the elders, why did you say it......"

Mrs. Pei and Pei Deqing both laughed, and Pei Deqing gave up his hand again and again: "Good cousin, thanks to you, it proves that I am not the one who talks nonsense!" ”

Wei Dongkang suddenly stood up from his chair, lifted his robe, and wanted to walk out the door. He couldn't take it anymore.

"Father, please stay!" Wei Yan was not flustered, she walked to Cui Ningjuan's side, "Cousin, you saw Wei Jiang, why didn't you see me?" You're in the woods, under a camphor tree, and your green skirt is hooked by broken branches...... I saw you, why can't you see me? ”

Cui Ningjuan's face turned pale in an instant, how could she be bumped into by her? At that time, she took Wei Jiang's handkerchief and hairpin and handed them to ......

She immediately became flustered, "Maybe...... Maybe it's me, I didn't see ...... clearly."

Pei Deqing was immediately anxious: "Nonsense! This...... How is this possible? ”

"Pei Gongzi," Wei Yan said with a smile, "Don't worry, be careful of scaring my cousin Ning Juan." People say they can't see it clearly, and you can't force them to lie. ”

Mrs. Pei glanced at her son sideways and said to Cui Ningjuan: "Good boy, don't pay attention to your cousin, think about it, really haven't you seen it clearly?" ”

The handkerchief in her hand was about to be shredded by herself, Cui Ningjuan's face was red and white, and she didn't know what to say.

"Mrs. Pei, my cousin can't be a witness. But the younger generation has a certificate! "Wei Yan is categorical.

The people in the whole room fixed their eyes on Wei Yan, and only listened to her say word by word: "Mrs. Pei said that I am not there, but I am not there, where is it?" Where I am, with whom, father and grandmother, is clearest together! ”

"You are ...... nonsense" Pei Deqing wanted to refute, but Wei Dongkang broke off: "Yan Niang, what are you talking about!" ”

"Father," Wei Yan said softly with a smile on her face, "Father, do you know where I am?" Right? Moreover, the daughter's place is arranged by the father and grandmother, right? ”

"You ......" a trace of guilt flashed in Wei Dongkang's eyes, "You kid ......"

"Father, do you want to invite your grandmother to tell me if your daughter has been with her sister all the time?"
